The development team of Aeterna Noctis has confirmed that the OST of the game will be released as a “Piano Collection”. After the success of the official announcement back in October 2020 and of our extended gameplay published by PlayStation Spain, we decided to take the next step forward and introduce the OST of Aeterna Noctis to the community in all its greatness.
What you can see in this video is the King of Darkness playing the piano with the Queen of Light, in a Casablanca-inspired composition. This 2D animation loop was made to highlight the talent of our art department and create a hypnotic image that feels natural and reinforces the effect of the music.
However, the best part of the video, and the reason it was shared, is its music. “The Infinite Sea” is the name of this track, and it is performed only with piano chords, adding some extra arrangements that make the song more emotional and complex than the vanilla version, which can also be found on the Aeterna Noctis YouTube channel.
This 3-minute video means that Aeternum Game Studios will release a “Piano Collection” of the Aeterna Noctis original soundtrack once the game is ready and available. It should be noted that “The Infinite Sea” is one of the 46 tracks that make up the OST of the game. We will reveal more tracks during the next months, along with some extra music content for the upcoming development diary. One of the biggest strengths of Aeterna Noctis is its art direction, and that also includes music and sound design. There is no better example of how we are taking care of every single aspect of the game than this track, composed and performed with great expertise.
